Shares Podcast: IntegraFin with Maynard Paton & Roland Head

In this month's episode of the Private Investor's Podcast, my good friend Maynard Paton and I have been discussing FTSE 250 share IntegraFin (LON:IHP). This investment platform serves financial advisers only and boasts strong – albeit complex – financials.

IntegraFin makes for an interesting comparison with better-known platforms AJ Bell and Hargreaves Lansdown, and Maynard and I spent some time debating the relative attractions of each business in our discussion. I hope you enjoy listening!
